Chapter 205: Demon God’s Blessing
Lynn couldn’t help but feel a bit nervous. After all, he was genuinely Lynn, the fake Illidan Stormrage.
No, even the real Illidan Stormrage wouldn’t work here. That was the name of some Demon Hunter, borrowed out of his playful mischief at the time.
If the "Demon-Revealing Mirror" were to expose his true form in front of such a large audience, under the intense scrutiny of tens of thousands of Demon Race experts, even if he had sky-rending power, things would get difficult.
He was all alone... well, he didn’t even have a horse. With so many Demon Race experts present, their sheer numbers alone could bury him alive, unless he could re-equip the Saint Emperor’s Divine Artifact. Otherwise, it would be difficult to carve out a bloody path.
"Bloodline: Ancient Demon Dragon."
"Power level: 999."
"Faith: Guardian Demon God."
"Confirmed, pass."
Under the illumination of hundreds of blood-red lights, Lynn forced himself to remain calm for a full three minutes before those scarlet beams gradually receded one by one.
And then his "information" was publicly revealed by these unscrupulous Demon Gods, leaving him no chance to play a humble genius.
Great, now everyone knew he was a level 999 Ancient Demon Dragon. Who would dare openly challenge or question him in the future? How would he slay demons at the slightest pretext now?
At this moment, many of the powerful Demon Race members who came to congratulate him drew in a sharp breath, directly causing a climate warm-up in the entire Demon Realm.
Oh my God!
Illidan, this guy, truly hid his strength well. He was actually a Near God, on par with the Late Emperor, with a power level reaching a terrifying 999, just half a step away from Ascending to Divinity to become an era-defining Demon God.
This time, the arrangements by the Guardian Demon God were too ruthless. This was an unyielding commitment to victory in this faith war!
The Demon Dragon Emperor of the Destruction Demon God’s camp had already perished. Who now could contend with Illidan’s magic energy in a direct confrontation?
Even if the previous generation of Demon Kings were to collectively resurrect, it wouldn’t make any difference. This generation and several future generations of the Demon Race would have to put their faith in the Guardian Demon God.
"Please grant your blessing, Demon God King!"
At this point, Ilya spoke again, asking the Guardian Demon God to bestow a blessing.
Though with Lynn’s level, he no longer needed any blessing to enhance his power, a mere sliver scraped from the Guardian Demon God’s fingernail could benefit Lynn immensely.
Moreover, even if Lynn didn’t need it, he could give it to her seven sisters. Who would complain about receiving too many benefits?
As Ilya’s plea ended, a beam of radiant light slowly descended from the blood-stained sky.
For the Demon Race, who revered black and red hues, a colored radiance was a rare sight, especially when it was a blessing for the new Demon Emperor, making it all the more peculiar.
"Damn it! It’s Guardian Refraction!"
In the crowd of demons below, an elderly high-level Saint Tier demon with no teeth to grit could only look on. As an old demon surviving since the era of the Emperor before last, he was one of the few who could recognize this Demon’s Gift.
Guardian Refraction was a unique demon nature of the Guardian Demon God, existing in two states: attack and defense.
In its defensive state, a demon activating Guardian Refraction would instantly become invincible, capable of withstanding any attack. Rumor has it that Guardian Refraction’s invincible state can even withstand a Demon Lord’s strike.
In its attack state, a demon using Guardian Refraction possesses an unwavering armor-piercing ability. No matter how strong the defense or protection, all life-saving Demon Artifacts and Substitute Death Demon Artifacts, or even talent abilities, would be futile against it. Theoretically, as long as the output limit of the refraction-initiating demon is high enough, he could potentially one-shot a Demon Lord Level deity.
In truth, for the Destruction Demon God’s camp, the defensive aspect wasn’t too concerning because it had limited use. The Guardian Refraction from the Demon’s Gift could be activated only once per day, and it could neutralize only one attack at a time, mainly serving to nullify lethal damage in life-and-death situations, but it wasn’t particularly terrifying.
But the attack effect was different. Though it also had usage limitations, available just once per day, its destructive effect ignored all forms of protection, making it terrifying. It allowed the strongest to kill an opponent in a single strike, leaving no escape.
The key is, such a power is available once a day. Defending once a day isn’t too significant, but if it means killing one a day...
How many demons do they have that are enough to be killed? In a year, over 360 could be slain, and there aren’t even 300 Demon King Level experts on the Destruction Demon God’s side.
That’s not even enough to last a year! They wouldn’t need to engage in a prolonged faith war; Illidan alone, as a dragon, could wipe them all out in no time.
This time, the Guardian Demon God truly went all out. It’s known that the defensive effect of Guardian Refraction is inherent in his demon nature, but the attack effect is derived from the Destruction Demon God’s Destruction Demon Intent, and this forcefully seized Demon Intent from opponents is extremely rare, depleting with a single use. It might take tens of thousands of years to gather a tiny bit more.
According to historical records, the last time a Demon Emperor received the Guardian Refraction gift was three hundred thousand years ago, an exceptional demon who did not disappoint, helping the Guardian Demon God gain faith sources for ten thousand years.
Now, that being is no longer a Demon Emperor but a Destruction Demon Lord under the Guardian Demon God, a formidable Demon Lord Level deity.
The Demon’s Gift is washed away with a Demon Emperor’s Ascension to Divinity; otherwise, with this power alone, the Destruction Demon Lord would be unparalleled at the same level, leaving no path for the Destruction Demon God’s Subordinate Gods.
"It’s Guardian Refraction! The Guardian Demon God is serious this time!"
There weren’t many elderly powerful demons among the demon crowd, but they existed. This matter inevitably spread among the demons, causing an uproar.
All the powerful demons watched Illidan Stormrage bathed in the radiant light, standing silently but filled with rising murderous intent.
If they didn’t kill him before he went on a killing spree, they’d await their turn to be wiped out by him one by one!
But... damn it! Why hadn’t those warring Demon Kings returned yet? With their current numbers, they’d be like eggs striking a rock. Even without Guardian Refraction, he could kill them all.
"Destruction Demon God, you can’t just watch!"
"Destruction Demon God, please take action..."
"Destruction Demon God..."
Helpless, the powerful demons with different faiths could only silently pray to the Destruction Demon God, asking for intervention, otherwise facing an invincible Illidan meant certain death.
Perhaps hearing the prayers of the followers, or perhaps being unable to endure the Guardian Demon God’s excessive blessing, under the watchful gaze of all demons, the Destruction Demon God boldly intervened across realms!
